Check out our new website for updates and the NWNX forum: www.nwnx.org ! The Neverwinter Nights Extender (NWNX) is a solution that adds new functionality to the dedicated server. It dynamically loads libraries into the server that can perform various tasks, like ODBC database connectivity. You can create your own NWNX module starting with version 2.5 and do things that you can't even dream of in NWScript.
About the ODBC interface: Unlike other persistence systems, the Avlis Persistence System (APS) and the underlying NWN Extender 2 read and write information from database servers like MySQL or other products on the fly and make information stored in the database available in real-time.
GPL'd means that anyone can modify or link with the modified source code or library as long as the derivative works are also release under an Open Source license such as GPL. I don't see any problem with advertising a derivative work that has some 'improved' features. The better question is whether the derivative work has indeed improved the package. Does anyone know if this is the case?

Let's not get ridiculious here. It's GPL'd which means anyone can brew there own, that's fine. The issue here is when someone advertises their clone in our comments. That's basically a slap in the face.
